Happy Wednesday!
Did anyone
happen to read The Houston Chronicle on October 21, 2023, their article titled,
“Houston carbon company creating storage”?
In the article, it goes on to speak about Milestone Carbon who announced
it is leasing 22,000 acres of underground storage space in Loving and Midland counties
from Texas Pacific Land Corp. to establish carbon hubs in the Delaware and
Midland Basins to help companies attain their net-zero goals or trying to
adhere to the EPA’s policies of removing carbon dioxide (CO2) from fossil fueled power plants out
of the air. Milestone Carbon’s parent company is Milestone Environmental Services who specializes in carbon sequestration. They will use its knowledge of injecting oil
field waste underground to catch CO2 to store underground in West Texas. Milestone Carbon announced in
September it is developing a similar project in Midland and Upton counties. Milestone Carbon believes its clientele
will be power plants, natural gas processing plants, facilities which make cement
and ammonia as well as companies striving to becoming net-zero. Milestone Carbon is one of several
companies who have announced carbon capture and sequestration projects over the
last few months. If you would like to
